Food Review: Yoshinoya
Yoshinoya is one of those Japanese chains which serves cheap food with reasonable quality.
The way they achieve this is by serving a big bowl of rice and soup to fill you up, and it works!
I was quite full and, if you don't, you can simply get more rice for free.

After leaving my luggage it was on to the Kyoto Tower, then to Senbon Tori (A Thousand Torii) at Inari. However, my time at the thousand gates was cut short by a thunderstorm which was closing in on the area, so I hurried back to the hotel, ending my first day in Kyoto.

The hotel I was staying in was the Kyoto Century Hotel, which has a window next to the lifts which faces the tracks of Kyoto Station. Its a decent place for trainspotting in general but is great if you don't want to suffer in temperatures of 30+ degrees

After getting off at Karasuma, I did some trainspotting at the station then went to Shijo station to take the Kyoto Subway Karasuma Line to Kyoto Station, where I proceeded to immediately get lost.

Next, I took the Kyo-train Garaku to Karasuma station in Kyoto. This was my first Limited Express train, and it was very interesting to see how different carriages had different seating layouts. The train was very busy thanks to social media but fortunately I managed to get a seat.

Got to take new DLR trains recently, unfortunately the one I was on overran Canning Town station so it got taken out of service. Not a good sign considering they have been testing for quite a while now

Visited Beaulieu Park yesterday. Despite the station being in the middle of nowhere (right now) and having a much lower frequency of trains than Chelmsford right next door, a decent number of people got off on my train from Liverpool Street (OK it was just 10).
